Transforming growth factor-? (TGF-?) promotes cancer metastasis via the
epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) but the underlying mechanisms in
nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remain unclear. Flotillin-2 (Flot2), a specialized
lipid raft domain in cellular membrane, was reported to promote cancer
metastasis. Recently, in neuropathy, it was also suggested that Flot2 was
involved in Src activation, which is known as the downstream signal of TGF-?.
Therefore, we intended to find out the relationship between Flot2 and TGF-? in
the process of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) metastasis. In this study, we found
that Flot2 expression level positively correlated with the cancer stage in NPC
tissues. Elevated Flot2 in tumor tissue was an independent prognostic marker, and
higher Flot2 expression level showed shorter overall survival time in 181 NPC
patients. In NPC cells, silencing Flot2 reversed the metastatic effect induced by
TGF-?. Moreover, TGF-?-induced Src phosphorylation was significantly inhibited by
Flot2 knocking down. As the consequence of Flot2 inhibition, the expression of
the epithelial biomarker E-cadherin was upregulated, while the mesenchymal marker
vimentin and signaling transducer ?-catenin was suppressed. In conclusions, Flot2
is an indispensable member for TGF-? signaling, which is essential for the EMT
process in NPC metastasis. Suppressing Flot2 may be a novel way against
TGF-?-induced EMT.
